Her favorite part of being on the field hockey team is the team itself.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI get to play with such fun girls,\u201d Emily said. \u201cI\u2019ve always stuck to the idea that there\u2019s not a type of field hockey player. There\u2019s girls from so many different majors, and so many different types of people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She first got into field hockey in sixth grade, when she went to a field hockey camp. Her two older sisters played and several cousins.<\/p>\n<p>Over her years of playing, she has become a real leader on and off the field. \u201cAugs is a leader both spiritually and athletically and has really made this team mesh as 91短视频 field hockey, rather than a collection of athletes from different class years,\u201d said Coach Kisner. \u201cWe will miss her very much next year and will need someone to step up to fill her role on the team as a captain and a player.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Augsburger will miss her team as well. \u201cI think I\u2019ve just been super fortunate to have a team that has been so positive and fun, especially this year,\u201d she said. \u201cAnd though it\u2019s been tough having three different coaches, I\u2019ve learned something different from each one and I feel like I\u2019ve used that as I\u2019ve played.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After graduation, Emily plans to work in an area hospital.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDefinitely staying in Harrisonburg, maybe Charlottesville,\u201d Emily said. \u201cGet a job, stay around here.
